<p>hey, im taking chem and geom. next year. can you tell me, in your opinions, how hard these classes are and maybe a little about the subject matter. I like math..i liked algebra 2 and hated bio. So thanks, i was just wondering if there was any words of wisdom for these classes or advice (and im bored hehe)</p>
<p>Chem is pretty hard in my opinion and Geometry is very easy</p>
<p>What kind of Chem?</p>
<p>Ummm...honors kind? lol.</p>
<p>Well, there's a difference between AP Chem and Honors Chem and Regular Chem. I know AP Chem can be horrible if your teacher sucks, and it can be awesome if your teacher knows what he/she's doing. I also know that the regular Soph Chem class was absurdly easy, but people in there were struggling all year.</p>
<p>I mean, why are you asking here? You would be MUCH better off asking someone at YOUR school who's taken the class. :P</p>
<p>Are you talking about plane geometry or analytic geometry, or coordinate geometry, non-euclidian geometry? Organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry, general chemistry? Regardless, geometry in it's many forms is extremely easy, while chemistry might require a little bit more work. Memorize your geometry theorems as you learn them!!! Don't ever forget your periodic table it will become your best friend.</p>
<p>from my experience both were insanely easy. might be different at your school though. you should be fine if you're at least moderately intelligent.</p>
<p>I am going to take Chemistry next year, but I have already taken Geometry. It is extremely easy. My 6 weeks grades were 101, 99, and 100. It was basically the easiest class ever.</p>
<p>Geometry can be very hard if you get into competitive mathematics, but the class itself should be cake. Chemistry was also pretty easy for me.</p>
<p>of its first year chemistry its pretty easy and straightforward...i hated goemetry but thats just me..</p>
<p>i liked both classes, a lot (i too hated bio, and liked algebra.) geometry was super easy. my teacher was an IDIOT, but just reading the book made more than clear. </p>
<p>screw literature.</p>
<p>Chemistry can be pretty easy and exciting if you have a good teacher. My teacher was brilliant, and I liked it way more than biology (eww). I thought geometry was easy, except I hated it because I just didn't like proving. Like,</p>
<p>Q. Prove these two triangles are congruent.
My Answer: Just look at them! Don't they look congruent already?</p>
<p>yeah. i took geometry in five weeks at summer school. my teacher was great. it was super easy if you just knew your theorems. chem was fun also. i took that as independent study from byu, so i learned all on my own, and i thought it was pretty easy. yeah, i hated regular bio, because my teacher did nothing. he gave an assignment and sat down at his desk. but that's why i'm taking AP bio next year, so I can actually learn, because bio interests me.
but yeah, back to your geom and chem question, easy.</p>
<p>Geometry sucks. At life. Most useless stuff ever. But it's hella easy.</p>
<p>Chem is probably more dependent on your teacher, if you're doing college-level work. I found high school chem fairly easy as well.</p>
<p>Geometry is really easy while chemistry depends on the teacher. I found it to be really easy even though the class was basically self-teach.</p>
<p>Geometry is only easy if your teacher is lax (ie. he doesn't make you prove theorems).</p>
<p>If he does, you'll find (nearly) everyone whining, "OMG! Proofs so stupid!"</p>
<p>Translation: They're too hard for me to do, so I call them stupid.</p>
<p>Proofs are stupid. I'm good at math, and yet, proofs are still amazingly stupid. Take up so much time.... God, I hate proofs. Not saying they're hard, just saying they are useless and the suck. </p>
<p>It's like Partial Fraction Decomposition or algebraic long division.... Waste of time, my calculator does that.</p>
<p>haha. partial fraction decomposition. i didn't even do the assignments that dealt with that because it looked so easy. our teacher didn't allow graphing calculators in our honors algebra 2/trig class, so we had to do it on our own. i got my lowest grade ever in math on that test, a 77. i laughed because there were only 6 problems, 3 of which were partial fraction decomp, and not the easy types of part. frac. decomp.</p>
<p>and proofs are easy. probably because in my geometry class, no one except me understood them, so when the teacher put them on the test, he made them really easy, and people still complained so he made them extra credit. i got a 106 in the class because of the proofs.</p>
<p>I'm tied for valedictorian in a large compettive high school. that said, i got three b's and a c in honors geometry as an eighth grader.</p>
<p>geometry has little to do with alg. II--it's simple and common sense
ask somebody at your own school abt chem</p>
